GOCE sheds light on tectonic processes


Title: GOCE sheds light on tectonic processes

Description: Scientists continue to use the data from the non-operational GOCE mission to shed light on the processes of plate tectonics. This image shows a model of Earth’s crust and upper mantle produced in ESA’s 3D Earth study and uses GOCE data combined with measurements taken at the surface.
